Fumble! Indoor league pulls franchise from Rome ownership group

Southern Indoor Football League says no to Rome ownership group: The Southern Indoor Football League has pulled its support of  of Professional Sports & Entertainment Group's bid to bring an SIFL team to Rome starting in March. A media briefing had been set for Thursday to announce the team. Says League President Thom Hager in a media release: "We love the Rome market. Rome fits perfectly in our vision for expansion. PS&EG has worked diligently to assemble an infrastructure; however the league has established requirements to ensure the viability and sustainability of our teams. If a prospective owner is not willing or able to comply, our experience is that the member will not be able to provide the fans and league the level of professionalism expected of a new SIFL team."
